"A new frigate? I heard him say it is a pulse-star light gunship. Our fleet really needs a long-range heavy firepower output ship type." Tang Xiao said, "Are you moving so fast now?"
Qu Xuewen said: "In fact, if it is the research of new spacecraft of the Kushen civilization, the speed is already very fast. After all, this is the basis of our civilization's science and technology library. However, now we mainly focus on small spacecrafts, and we still have to consider the issue of size.
, this is what Mr. Chi insists on. After all, our total population is only so large, we cannot build a battleship and then stuff the entire navy into it."
"I agree with this. It's not too early to show off your talents." Tang Xiao nodded.
Qu Xuewen seemed to be avoiding him. This time he didn't take him around, he went directly to the research institute's spaceport, and then left as if running away.
Just as Tang Xiao expected, there were still surprises waiting for him this time when he came to the scientific research space station.
Only a light frigate was seen docked in the built-in dock, and the outer armor was lifted to reveal the complex circuits and electronic components underneath.
This frigate has a much smoother shape than the Hammer-class frigate. It does not have that clumsy and solid feeling. On the contrary, it is quite beautiful. Of course, what is more prominent is the large turret placed above the hull. The turret has a square gun hole.
It is in a twin-mounted layout, but the other side is a stubby fire control and sighting system.
With this shape, the frigate looks like a much enlarged infantry fighting vehicle at first glance.
Professor Chi Jianjun and a group of technicians were waiting next to the spacecraft, and on the other side there was a tall and mighty oriental middle-aged man, at least a head taller than Tang Xiao, with muscles that could almost burst his military uniform. Behind him
Also following were four or five people in military uniforms.
Different from the navy's dark blue uniforms, this group of people wore dark green uniforms and were from the army.
Seeing Tang Xiao coming, Chi Jianjun pointed here and said loudly: "Hey, hey, the manager is here, go find him. Don't keep pestering me!"
When the muscular man saw Tang Xiao coming, he immediately rushed over like a tank and spoke like a bell, "Manager! I miss you so much!!"
A drop of cold sweat dripped from Tang Xiao's forehead, and he was ready to use the Force to push this guy away.
But the muscular man still knew his sense of proportion. He rushed over and stood in front of Tang Xiao, gave a military salute and said loudly: "Manager! Army Commander Xiao Guanghua is reporting to you!!"
Xiao Guanghua was the elite commander selected by Tang Xiao when he established the Fourth Civilization Army, and is currently the commander-in-chief of the Fourth Civilization Army. Tang Xiao did not have many options at the time, so he chose Xiao Guanghua, who seemed very reliable.
.
Because according to his resume, he was a soldier who climbed up from the bottom to the position of regimental commander step by step, all relying on his illustrious military exploits. It was this down-to-earthness that Tang Xiao valued.
However, compared to the terrifying title of Commander-in-Chief of the Army, the entire fourth civilization's army has now expanded from 500 people when the army was founded to 1,200 people, and apart from a few jeeps, it does not have any heavy vehicles.
In addition to training, these army tasks every day are to exterminate some large and dangerous animals that threaten the town. Finally, there is a pirate mission. In order to avoid suspicion, Tang Xiao sent out all jackals. Now I guess
Xiao Guanghua couldn't sit still either.
Seeing his passionate eyes, Tang Xiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Are you still thinking of being a pirate? There is no such job for the time being. Ni Yongxiao's campaign against the Black Sun has not made any progress, so there is no place for you for the time being.
My brothers should stretch their muscles and bones."
"Manager, I came to Professor Chi mainly for other things." Xiao Guanghua said: "Look, the warships in the Navy have been replaced generation after generation, building one after another, but here I still have the same problem.
We are using an old Type 21 assault rifle. It is difficult for this kind of rifle to shoot some large carnivores. You know, some beasts on the Dawn Planet are simply indescribably powerful. I really don’t know how they evolved."
When he spoke, he habitually jumped the muscles on his body, just like a bodybuilder, which made Tang Xiao speechless for a while.
"If you want to change clothes...I remember it was already on the agenda before, right?" Tang Xiao glanced at Chi Jianjun.
"The research on the M-8 Avenger assault rifle has been completed and started to be replaced. The main reason is that we need to use a universal tool in the same system, so we completed the research on the M-8 by the way." Chi Jianjun was obviously interested in Xiao.
Guanghua's beating chest muscles were a little frightened, and she took two steps back to answer.
"Ah! Listen, manager! Our army's stuff is just for convenience!" Xiao Guanghua raised his hands, bulging his biceps and shouted loudly, "I also know that the navy is the main force now, but we
The Army also has needs. It keeps using these light weapons, and if necessary, it won't even be able to open its tanks!"
"I imagine that the MNLAV-21 Pathfinder-class light attack vehicle and the Long Sword surface-to-air missile can also be equipped for the army. Don't worry, whether it is the battle against the Black Sun or
All operations on Tatooine require the use of the Army. Your equipment will gradually be in place." Tang Xiao smiled and patted Xiao Guanghua's shoulder.
"It's settled!" Xiao Guanghua said loudly.
"The same series of M-8 assault rifles includes sniper rifles, shotguns and other weapons, which will soon be included in the production range." Chi Jianjun added, hiding behind a technician.
After finally sending Xiao Guanghua away, Tang Xiao pointed at the frigate in front of him and said, "Pulse-star light frigate? How about it? Can it be mass-produced?"
"Mass production should be no problem, but I need to remind you that this kind of frigates do not have the ability to fight alone. They are equipped with a miniature short-wave ion cannon. Each shot lasts for 0.4 seconds and has a cooling time of 1.12 seconds. It can deal with energy.
The shield and light armor cause considerable damage, and the maximum range is 55 kilometers, so we can hide in the middle and rear of our battleship formation and shoot." Chi Jianjun said.
"How can such a big turret still be so small?" Tang Xiao said, pointing to the large cannon hole that was nearly 20 meters long and more than 3 meters thick.
"Based on the principle of this short-wave ion cannon, it is indeed considered micro. I checked the records of the Kushen civilization's technology library and found that this ion cannon will be the main gun installed on battleships after the technology matures." Chi Jian
